Chapter 113: Eldest Uncle Noticed Me! "Bringing the cat is definitely not an option." Li Xuemei said, "No matter how slow the three Qis are, they’ll notice something's off if too much time passes." Yan Yu lowered her head and thought for a long time before looking up. "Dad, have you considered that feeding the three Qi uncles until they’re full is extremely difficult and unsustainable?

Yan Yu answered quickly, "Uncle is strong, Father is strong, Uncle Hu is strong, Second Uncle Hu is strong, and also Uncle Qi, Fourth Uncle Qi, Fifth Uncle Qi..." "Am I strong too? In what way?" "Uncle reads a lot, knows a lot, and always says reasonable…

The enclosed spaces, the heavy workload, and the overseers who only know how to bark orders to keep digging, hauling, and digging again. A month of work there would take half a person’s life. And if one were sold to the mines, their life would be as…

- Chapter 108: Eldest Uncle's Notebook The price of horse meat was difficult to determine. Yan Lao’er planned to sell it for thirty wen per jin. That was dirt cheap! Everyone knew that once they reached Guanzhou, silver was the hard currency. Buying property, registering in the government records—everything required money. But right now, food was more valuable than silver. This was meat! If Liang Manshan was willing to spend money to bring it back as a filial offering to his father,…

- Chapter 109: Dividing the Money Among Households Yan Huaiwen made sure to record every single coin Tianyou handed over to him. The year, the month, the day, the location—copper coins... He patiently counted them, one by one, with meticulous care. After counting once, he was still uneasy and counted again. Only then did he solemnly write down: One hundred and sixty-five wen. Feeling it wasn’t enough, he added a few more words: My younger brother Tianyou’s first contribution to…

- Chapter 110: Studying Well Also Earns Some Money "Each household gets twelve taels and two hundred wen. This is ours." Yan Huaian first handed over the large sum and then placed the stringed copper coins on the small table. "Here are two thousand nine hundred and forty-six wen, the money everyone pooled to buy horse meat. At thirty wen per jin, each household gets a little over two jin. I had Luo San's family cut three jin." Yan Huaiwen slowly accepted the silver and nodded reservedly. "Not…

- Chapter 104: Distributing the Grain Yan Yu drank her porridge, still feeling dazed and muddled. It wasn’t until the exaggeratedly large group of disaster victims approached them that she began to notice. She tried her best to open her eyes wide and rubbed them, attempting to determine if she was dreaming. Why! Why are there so many disaster victims! Right nearby! She put down her bowl and quickly ran to her father’s side. If she wanted to know what was happening, following her…

- Chapter 105: Cloud-Piercing Stronghold Is Very Empty Yan Huaiwen unexpectedly distributed the silver first. Old Pine Mountain had been home to mountain bandits for years and had accumulated some wealth. Adding in what they had looted from the disaster victims, the total came to several hundred taels. The disaster victims were given one tael of silver per household. Such a generous hand stunned everyone. After distributing this large sum, not much silver remained. Unexpectedly, Yan…
